My anxiety is triggered by things like blood, heart rate, being made conscious of automatic processes in the body.
So any sort of "this slows your heart" type of beat will actually increase my anxiety. I can't even listen to this track.
- throwaway158563 7y agoI was in this situation for more than a decade up until a few years ago. Was diagnosed with General Anxiety Disorder (GAD). I used to have panic attacks after discovering my heart wasn't beating at the resting rate according to Wikipedia, or when my skin felt a little dry and I thought I was having a heart failure. But once I started taking antidepressants, it almost completely went away (in addition to other techniques to take my mind off of myself when needed).
